Several prominent bugs and glitches from the original titles have also been resolved. Each release features a remastered musical score supervised by the original composer, Nobuo Uematsu, as well as some adjustments taken from previous versions. The remasters do not include some previous Easter eggs, nor do they include any of the bonus dungeons and features introduced in the Game Boy Advance ports and further releases based on those. All six titles' character pixel art have been remastered from their original versions by the games' original pixel artist Kazuko Shibuya, who has worked on the Final Fantasy series since the first game.

The spritework appears to be partially based on the art featured in FF DOT: The Pixel Art of Final Fantasy, a 2018 art book that featured re-imagined sprites from many titles in the series, and Final Fantasy Dimensions.

Announced on Jas part of Square Enix Presents Summer Showcase for E3 2021 and published on iOS, Android, and Microsoft Windows via Steam between July 2021 and February 2022, the pixel remaster series was promoted as being the 'ultimate 2D remasters' of their respective games.
